Strawberry Cupcake

This is one of my favourite Bugaboo digi stamps, it's such a fun image and it's a joy to colour, which I've done with my usual Promarkers, adding a touch of Star Dust Stickles to the fairy's wings. I'm always drawn to cupcake images, as I like to bake them almost as much as like to craft them from paper!

I cut the topper out with a Grand Spellbinder die, and whilst the card was still in the die, I gently inked with Shabby Shutters Distress Ink.
The fun and funky papers are Papermania, Little Cake Shoppe, a range they did several years ago. They might be old but I still really like them, but then, they're baking themed, and baking themed floats my boat! I thought the strawberry papers were the perfect match for this image. I added a loopy border made with a Martha Stewart punch and some brown spotty ribbon to pick out the brown in the image.
To embellish, I added a sentiment tag, stamped with Papermania stamps, some flowers and foliage made with Nellie Snellen and Woodware punches, and some green gems.

Oh my gosh!! This is adorable! Love him!! Your coloring is amazing! Love those flowers and that ribbon and the dies that you used behind. Just gorgeous!!! LOVE IT!!! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Open-Minded Crafting Fun Challenges!!! Good Luck! I hope we see you again!!
